How to teach Quantum Mechanics
نویسنده
چکیده
In the following Bell gives an account of the Lorentzian interpretation of relativistic effects, in which the Lorentz transformations are explained by a dynamical mechanism (including the assumption of an – though undetectable – aether) rather than derived from postulates as in the approach of Einstein. Bell concludes that teaching relativity can benefit from what he calls a “Lorentzian pedagogy”, i.e. a presentation of the Lorentzian viewpoint, since “the longer road sometimes gives more familiarity with the country”. Our note tries to translate this conclusion into the context of quantum theory, where Bohmian mechanics can serve a similar purpose as the

Quantum Interpretations in Modern Physics Instruction
Just as expert physicists vary in their personal stances on interpretation in quantum mechanics, instructors hold different views on teaching interpretations of quantum phenomena in introductory modern physics courses. There has been relatively little research in the physics education community on the variation in instructional approaches with respect to quantum interpretation, and how instruct...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics and the Mechanism of Sexual Reproduction
There are many claims that quantum mechanics plays a key role in the origin and/or operation of biological organisms. The mechanism of the meiosis, mitosis and gametes life cycle from the view-point of quantum for human has been represented. The quantum gates have been used to simulate these processes for the first time. The reason of several hundred sperms has been explained in the male too

متن کاملCopenhagen computation
I describe a pedagogical scheme devised to teach efficiently to computer scientists just enough quantum mechanics to permit them to understand the theoretical developments of the last decade going under the name of ‘‘quantum computation.’’ I then note that my offbeat approach to quantum mechanics, designed to be maximally efficacious for this specific educational purpose, is nothing other than ...
متن کاملTeaching and understanding of quantum interpretations in modern physics courses
Just as expert physicists vary in their personal stances on interpretation in quantum mechanics, instructors vary on whether and how to teach interpretations of quantum phenomena in introductory modern physics courses. In this paper, we document variations in instructional approaches with respect to interpretation in two similar modern physics courses recently taught at the University of Colora...
